Next chapter is actually about Tony and Renard getting along quite splendidly.

Next chapter is the students teaming up and duct taping Tony to a bench.

Why was the last chapter "the tree" btw. There were no trees.

Because that's the chapter in which Antimony makes like a tree, and leaves.

That's how you get tinnitus

It turns out that the previous owner of Anthony's room lost some of those stick-on googly eyes down between the cushions of the chair, and this enables Renard to move from the doll to the chair without him noticing. He then spends the rest of the chapter messing with Anthony's head by moving around the room every time he's not looking.

He wouldn't be able to possess anything without Tony's okay, though.

Even if he could I'm not sure he'd want to be inside anything that Tony's butt has touched.

I've seen fun you people wouldn't believe.
Tiki torches on fire off the summit of Kilauea.
I watched disco balls glitter in the dark near the Brandenburg Gate.
All those moments will be lost in time, like crowds in rain.

Time to sleep.

A chair is made of wood. Clearly the next chapter will be ysengrin doing the solid snake. Then Antony kills him and makes the remains into a chair.

Unless we get a perspective change, I'm expecting this chapter to be about Annie go behind her father's back and sneaking contact with her friends, thus beginning the slow process of teenage rebellion that Tony's missed (By being a Bad Dad, Worst Friend).

I have every expectation that Gunnerkrigg's school exists solely because either the founders or the people they brought had children and wanted to shove them somewhere while they did the ~important work~ of making gods out of men.

Apparently this is the case, from the wiki's archive of Tom's Formspring:

Word of Tom posted:

Who established the school part of Gunnerkrigg Court?

The founders, when they realised they needed somewhere to teach the children.

As for students paying for tuition:

Word of Tom posted:

What are the school fees of Gunnerkrigg?

There aren't any. The Court choose who they want.

Other fun questions and answers reminding us the Court is a super nice place:

Word of Tom posted:

Has the court ever engaged in hostilities (armed or otherwise) with entities or foreign powers other than the forest?

Not officially.

Word of Tom posted:

Has the Court ever have to deal with foreign powers desiring etheric technology?

not for long, no.

Please tell me Kat isn't visiting Annie right now, because that would mean Annie would be living in that completely isolated bunker.

Kinda hosed up if true, given the location. With the determined look on her face I was thinking that maybe she was headed to the robot underground or something to try and recruit against Tony.

Well, once you've gone this far you really just have to keep hammering that point in, I guess.

I mean, to chase off the last weeping few of us who're hoping that Anthony Carver will turn out not to be a total shitheel.

This is definitely not the SCP thread, and I definitely didn't post a reply to that here.

Either that or Anthony has meticulously recreated the interior of Good Hope to complete his illusion and we're going off the deep end.

It's reminiscent of the tall hallways Annie visited when she rescued Robot's CPU, but it's not quite the same. No receptionist, for one. But it definitely feels like robot territory.

Is it really just that single room with all of her stuff in one corner?

Why doesn't she just move the few pieces of furniture she has over to where the door is and save everyone a lot of walking? Though I guess the answer to that is "Anthony Carver."
